Wow Matt like you say the setting was really nice. Not some big open field, the buildings made for a nice social atmosphere. Heck 250 cars is a very decent turnout, some pretty trick ones in attendance. Looks like you were packed in like sardines, kind of sketchy to have some people that close to the cars. Looks like your very handy with the camera, wonderful angles, like high you pulled off the look down shot from the vantage point of a tall building. Good work, thanks for posting Matt!!

Thanks Greg! I actually had that aerial shot picked out before the show, I just didn't know what it was going to look like. Came out good!

Between Tadd and myself, both Montes got A LOT of attention. I noticed a lot of people looking at my wheels. It's nice to hang out around the car and hear people talking about the Monte.

Thanks again guys!

Nice pics Matt. I was looking for my father in laws car in the wide shots but Im not sure if he was there or not. I havent talked to him this weekend to ask. He has a green 71 cutlass that he has owned since new.

I seen this blazer in bay city last week at the Cool city car show (Formerly the Be Cool car show) It was parked right across from my stage. What a clean truck. The crazy thing is the guy drives it all over and even off roads it at the dunes.

Thanks Lou. The guy trailered that Blazer in and was right in front of Tadd and I when we got there. Very nice truck and, yes, he does use it. Amazing for how nice and clean it was.

R.E. Olds Museum is currently raffling off this 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 with only 11,500 miles. The car was at the show yesterday.
